LOTR The Hobbit Props

This work is based on unused concept art for “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” art book released by Weta. I got some of the patterns the dwarves wore and incorporated them in various places like the blanket, horn, lantern, and plinth. Part of the challenge with this piece is that a large quantity of the concepts were rough sketches, so I had to match the style and feel of the movies by filling in the gaps with my research. Furthermore, in order to speedup workflow and iteration, I made al the textures and materials easily adjustable in order to allow for fast variants to be generated. Overall, this was a great project that allowed me to do research and make some less seen items that might be part of an adventurers pack.

The tri counts are as follows:

Lantern 4k

Ear Horn 2k

Kitchen knife 1k

Key to Erebor 1k

Money pouch 4k

Explosive sacks 3k

Blanket 485

Plinth 88
